=The Process of TransformationWhat Is Anger?=
==The Practice Anger is a violent reaction of Self Observation==the vital to some shock that is unpleasant to it; and when it involves words or thoughts, the mind responds to the influence of the vital and also reacts violently. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/16/11-may-1966#p4</ref>
Most It comes from outside; from the universal nature and takes possession of the individual being and makes that being act according to the will of this outside force and not according to the will of the soul within.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/anger-and-violence#p20</ref> It makes one forget oneself, one becomes anger and the impulses and powers of self-restraint do not come forward. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/21/exclusive-concentration-of you live on -consciousness-force-and-the-ignorance#p9</ref> =Why Anger Manifests in the Human Instrument?= Anger is a deformation of the vital power, an obscure and wholly unregenerated vital, a vital that is still subject to all the ordinary actions and reactions. When this vital power is used by an ignorant and egoistic individual will and this will meets with opposition from other individual wills around it, this power, under the surface pressure of your beingopposition, exposed changes into anger and tries to obtain by violence what cannot be achieved solely by the touch pressure of external influencesthe force itself. You live almost projected<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/10/aphorism-51#p4,p5,p6,p7</ref> ==Weakness in the Vital Nature== If there is something in one’s character which answers to this force of anger, as it werehas its free play. All movements, all vibrations are general—they enter, outside your own bodythey go out, they move about—but they rush and when you meet enter only to the extent one leaves the door open. And if one has some unpleasant being similarly projected you affinity with these forces, one may get upsetangry without even knowing why. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/3-march-1951#p11</ref> ==Impurities in the Subconscient== The whole trouble arises out subconscient is the support of habitual action—it can support good habits as well as bad.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/the-subconscient-and-the-integral-yoga#p23</ref> First of your not being accustomed all, it is the subconscient that has to stepping backbecome conscious, and indeed the main difficulty of the integral transformation is that things are constantly rising up from the subconscient. You think you have got a certain movement under control—anger, for example. You must always step back into yourself—learn try very hard to control your anger and succeed to some extent, then suddenly it rises up again for some reason unknown to go deep within—step back you, as if you hadn't done anything at all, and you will have to start all over again. If it were the transformed part of the being going back to its old ways, it would be safemost depressing, but it is not like that. If someone It is the material part, the material life which is sustained, supported, so to say, by a subconscient life. And this subconscient is angry beginning to get individualised around some people; it has certain affinities with a kind of subconscient somewhat like our own, and that is where the things youhave repressed or thrown out of your nature go to—and one fine day they rise up again.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/15/6-january-1951#p16</ref> ==Hostile Forces in the Environment== If they come in, do not be caught it is a sign that there is something in his vibrations but simply step back and his angerthe being, finding no support vital or responsephysical, will vanishthat either responds or is too inert to oppose. Never decide anything without stepping back, never speak a word without stepping back, never throw yourself into action without stepping back<ref>https://incarnateword. All in/cwsa/31/attacks-by-the-hostile-forces#p3</ref> The hostile forces are always on the watch to rob what they can of the things received by the sadhak—not that belongs they profit by them, but they prevent them from being used to build up the divine in life.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/attacks-by-the ordinary world is impermanent and fugitive-hostile-forces#p6, so there p7</ref> =How to Get Rid of Anger?=  ==By Developing a Strong Will== If the will is nothing strong enough anger can be controlled. When the psychic being flowers in the being, it worth getting upset aboutwill govern the vital nature and such tendencies disappear. <ref>https://incarnateword.When in/cwsa/31/anger-and-violence#p30</ref> ==By Control of Speech== If you give expression to anger, you prolong or confirm the habit of the recurrence of anger; you do not diminish or get rid of the habit. The very first step towards weakening the sense power of anger in the relativity nature and afterwards getting rid of thingsit altogether, then whatever happens you is to refuse all expression to it in act or speech. Afterwards one can step back go on with more likelihood of success to throw it out from the thought and feeling also. And so with all other wrong movements.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/31/anger-and look; -violence#p22</ref> ==By Rejection== If you can remain quiet feel them as not your own, then they have no right, and call on the Divine Force and wait for an answerwill can develop more power to send them away. Then What you must always have and feel as yours, is this will know exactly what , the power to refuse assent, to refuse admission to doa wrong movement. RememberOr if it comes in, thereforethe power to send it away, that without expressing it. If you cannot receive find it difficult to reject in the answer before sense of throwing away, what you are very peacefulhave to do is to refuse assent. Practice that inner peaceAs for instance, as regards voices or suggestions, not to listen to them, not to believe what they want you to believe, make at least a small beginning and go on in your practice until it becomes a habit with not to do what they want or push youto do.<ref>httphttps://incarnateword.in/cwmcwsa/0331/steppinganger-backand-violence#p1p23,p24,p25</ref>
==Inner Detachment==
The individual consciousness Look at it and see how trifling is not by the occasion of the rising of this anger and its nature detached from outburst—it becomes more and more causeless and the mental and other activitiesabsurdity of such movements reveals itself. It can would not really be detached, difficult to get rid of it if when it comes you looked at it can be involved. In the human consciousness calmly—for it is as perfectly possible to stand back in one part of the being observing in a rule always involveddetached equanimity even while the anger rises on the surface, but as if it has developed the power of detaching itself—a thing which the lower creation seems unable to do. As were someone else in your being who had the consciousness develops, this power of detachment also developsanger.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/3031/inner-detachmentanger-and-the-witness-attitudeviolence#p1p4</ref>
Detachment means standing back with part of the consciousness and observing what is being done without being involved in it. There is no "how" to that; you do it or try it until it succeeds.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/30/inner-detachment-and-the-witness-attitude#p2</ref>===Developing a Witness Attitude===
It Witness means an observer, someone who looks on and does not act himself. So, when the mind is sovery quiet, by standing back one can withdraw a little in this way from these forces [circumstances and look at things as though he were a witness, a spectator, and not participating in the surrounding world]action himself. This gives you a great detachment, a great quietude, and also a very precise see of the value of things, neither attracted nor disturbed by thembecause it cuts the attachment to action. When you know how to do this with yourself, that one gets freedomwhen you can withdraw and watch yourself acting, perceives their falsity or imperfection you learn many things about yourself. When you are all mixed up and is able to rise above take part in the action, you do not observe yourself acting, you don't know what you are like. But when you draw back and overcome themlook at yourself, you can perceive many imperfections which you wouldn't have seen otherwise.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsacwm/3006/inner-detachment-and13-the-witnessoctober-attitude1954#p5p2</ref>
==Developing a Witness Attitude==
The part that observes and knows is called the Witness sākṣī in man. It is always possible to develop this in oneself.<ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwsa/30/inner-detachment-and-the-witness-attitude#p25,p2,p1</ref>'''Content curated by Kamini'''
There is a stage in the sadhana in which the inner being begins to awake. Often the first result is the condition made up of the following elements:
(1) A sort of witness attitude, in which the inner consciousness looks at all that happens as a spectator or observer, observing things but taking no active interest or pleasure in them.
(2) A state of neutral equanimity in which there is neither joy nor sorrow, only quietude.
(3) A sense of being something separate from all that happens, observing it but not part of it.
(4) An absence of attachment to things, people or events.
